DTS Limted - Rolling CB Interview™

Ryan Derrickson recounts the day when he was making a drop in Ocoee, Florida. He shares the details on the truck build, his typical method of operation and a bit of his driving history. The truck is a 1999 Peterbilt 379 / Caterpillar 3406E / 18 speed / 3.36 rears / 312 inch wheelbase pulling a 53' Thermo King with a 15' spread.

The hardest thing to teach those new to the industry is that there is much more to trucking than just driving. Lumping freight, breaking down pallets and a lot of waiting is just part of the job. Thank you for highlighting the unseen side of the industry.

[@BigRigVideos]

***** Your welcome, there are a lot of things that need to have a light shined on them.

[@100pyatt]

bunker108 completely agree, people on the outside just see driving.... There's so so much more to trucking!!

[@xrigtrk]

Do I have some stories. Mercy

[@100pyatt]

This is still one of my favorite trucks and interviews Chris has done. The walk through of the job really added to the story of the truck and the owner behind it. Nice job!

[@fernandomccrea]

One of the top five interviews ever. Not only an amazing truck, but the Owner was very professional in when answering questions about his equipment and about the industry. Salute to this guy.

[@Coyote-ds7rm]

99 379 Pete with a 3406E cat, is my favorite Pete out there. Really enjoyed this video as I to built a custom 379 stretched Truck but for Heavy Towing and really miss that truck. Great Video, sweet 379!!

[@4fanman744]

Hey Alec...thanks man! Glad you liked it...Chris did an awesome job letting the public see behind the scenes instead of just behind the wheel. We all work hard to keep the country moving, and driving is just the first part of the job. Stay safe out there! Ryan

[@michaelhofer9149]

This is one of the best of the "Rolling CB Interview" episodes and I think it's because it was FILMED and then Chris and Ryan sat down and went over the film and discussed it.

[@frankyboy290]

beautiful, work of art .color combo, out standing. closed panels on landing gear ,panels on trailer suspension .everything done right . truly a head turner . by far one of the best looking truck trailer set up . hope to see it going down the interstate .

[@robertmcintosh6042]

That’s one of the absolute best rigs you’ve showcased in recent time Chris. Awesome paint scheme and stance.. And the owner operator is exactly the type of guy we want coming up through the ranks.

[@ronnieoconnor5192]

Chris, I second all the positive comments about this interview - terrific job!

[@Xantec]

That livery is one of those where Less is More, simple, effective and elegant as well, and with those alloy wheels, it is simply gorgeous!

[@offendedhullen]

This is an absolute beauty to look at. Finally, a driver I can relate to.

[@mj8900]

That’s a REAL ROOSTER CRUISER! Hell yea love this large car! One of the best looking combos I’ve ever seen! And reminds me of the old days lumping your own loads without rip off lumpers! Hell yea bro keep on trucking 💪

[@hillbillybo9]

My first Big Rig Video and I loved it!! Certainly will be watching more and more!!! Keep em rolling and God bless the trucker friends!!!

[@BigRigVideos]

Timmy Smith Awesome Timmy, Welcome!!!!!

[@jcraiglynch]

Chris, this is one of the best you've done. What a video, the driver's story and the information he shared was top notch. Chris, as I always say, you're doing something great man. I'm checking everyday for a new video and I can't count how many previously viewed videos I rewatch. Thanks a bunch!

[@BigRigVideos]

J Craig Lynch Your welcome Craig, that means a lot that you enjoy them so much! Hope you are ready for truck show season to kick off!!

[@jcraiglynch]

Definitely; we're hitting up Wildwood in April.

[@xrigtrk]

Boy do that bring back memories, I work my donkey off back in the good old days 80s-2000, mercy.

[@geranimojess]

Very Enjoyable...being in the Cab was a Bonus and Ryan is the kinda' Driver I'd love to accompany across the States...I'm hooked on these Interviews,you ask the Questions the Drivers answer without any Interruptions...very Professionally done...

[@dijamonebaker7349]

As a young Truck driver I can’t wait until the day I Get my personal customized truck love the video ✊🏽✊🏽

[@KingNobleTV]

Well it's been 2 years now how's the goal coming along ?

[@michealmacwilliams4247]

Cool your jets, owning your own truck is a full time job whether or not if it is customised. If your going to buy a truck, buy one from the dealership speck it like you want it and slowly work on making it a show truck

[@Febreze99]

Dedication, Consistency & Commitment

[@matthiasgaming1830]

Vell it's has been 5y how it's the trucking?

[@nickselin8992]

The turbo has the best high tones.... the jakes have the best low tones!!!!!!! Keep singing!!! An absolute beautiful truck!!!

[@earskasterling951]

What an awesome looking. Truck that color blue is fantastic !! Thanks again for your fine tune. Jobs

[@tonyhylind2088]

my dad is a trucker and in the video of the waiting for a door is so true and a lot of people don't know what truckers have to do for a load sometimes

[@barnesdrb]

I can't stop watching this .... thank you guys

[@BigRigVideos]

Dereck Barnes Your welcome!!!

[@rela4078]

Same like me

[@stanguay169]

Wow, real nice looking Pete 379! For 1999, it keeps on truckin!

[@132doubled]

Weird how it stands out from mile away but still exactly how he describes it clean and simple. Very motivated and driven. Not many ppl can say there a professional driver and pilot.

[@PaulSmith-qx1et]

Good combination of the color..excellent paint job,simple n tidy...perfect match...

[@donho5818]

That's the best looking truck I've ever seen. I would be proud to drive that

[@lydialas1649]

@Hi Don how are you doing

[@mikemowat7310]

Your videos are exceptional. Thank you for all the effort it takes to bring these rigs and stories to lite. As a person who has been in trucking a long time [since 1960], the thing that I find missing from your stories are the costs. I've purchased trucks that were brand new, slightly used and fixer uppers and they all cost a lot of money. For the life of me, I don't see where there is enough money in trucking to make these trucks pay, or even possible. Could you add to [at lease] some of your segments the business (dollar) end of these projects. We all would love to drive our dream truck. Explain just how to make it happen. Thanks again for the wonderful videos, Mike

[@BigRigVideos]

Thanks Mike, glad you enjoy the videos. I will try to get more of the business end of things involved in the conversation

[@mikemowat7310]

+BigRig Videos Thanks, in most cases it won't be easy. There is a lot of ego in having a truck like that. Hopefully there will be a few, who like you, just what the stories told. So much of trucking is hard work and skinny margins. If there really is a way to provide a home for your family, save for retirement and have money left over to build a dream truck, than, that would be a story.

[@lydialas1649]

@Hi Mike how are you doing

[@brianrondeau7419]

This has to be my favorite one with Josh Lemkes in a close second!! You do an awesome job with the videos Chris! If you ever get a chance it would be great to see you make it to Berubes truck show up here in NH some year!

[@BigRigVideos]

Brian Rondeau Thanks for the "flowers" I'll wander up that way yet, I just heard about that show last month.

[@jschmid]

That guy sold that truck+trailer and is now owned by an individual in Wisconsin. I had the opportunity to drive it but the guy only does east coast. Beautiful awesome truck, inside and out.

[@offendedhullen]

I can relate to this driver. He is the only one I've heard say he is a first generation trucker and so am I.

[@bonniehamilton7457]

Nice blue and white truck. Love the simplicity.

[@txroaddog1784]

That is one good looking setup right there. Love it!

[@rockstartruckinginc7684]

i think i saw this truck in LEBEC< CA at the TA yesterday....I think I AM SURE IT WAS IT @bigrig videos, brother man you guys do an awesome job, gives us new ideas and how to make our Rigs unique and get ideas from other trucks... much love keep up the good work

[@truckingham3233]

[@rela4078]

Thats like Europe. I'm a reefer guy as you see on my insta but you must every single day watch the other people in these streets. They're drivin without brain

[@Tiedye6336]

I really enjoy seeing the drivers pick up or unload at the places that they are going to!!...that a part of trucking that the we don’t get to see as a person that not in the trucking industry

[@sebhac0123]

A new masterpiece Chris!

[@BigRigVideos]

Sebastien Hache Thanks man!

[@barnesdrb]

I saw this thing at MATS.... this guy has a damn good rig and seems like a swell guy.

[@BigRigVideos]

Dereck Barnes Yes Ryan is one of the Good Guys

[@1topfueldrag]

i can’t recall ever seeing dual fuel tanks on a reefer. Nice ride

[@jacobchilton188]

Idk why there is 29 dislikes on this video I haven't seen a bad video yet from this page

[@stanislavpavlov6311]

Jacob Chilton There might be 1...the one where Chris said that a Freightliner is photo bombing 2 Peterbilts. It seemed a bit rude.

[@derekintrovert5619]

Jacob Chilton I agree what is with the Negative thumbs down Really ???? some ppl🤔😔

[@austinfree7036]

Chances are all the dislikes on these videos are most likely from the people who absolutely hate big trucks. As for me I'm trying to get into this industry

[@BISKUPIA]

gotta be from tree hugging (demon-crat) toyota or prius drivers...uh; huh huh huh huh they got problems...

[@clidefisher6924]

Really sweet unit ❤️

[@georgesilvia450]

Great Interview, Thanks DTS, and R CB I

[@suze816]

Absolutely Love that Cool Blue Pearl & white color combination on your truck and trailer ! Just beautiful ! .. Bringing the color theme inside looks awesome, too. Love the blue style gauges. Just wondering - Do you Never drive in snow ?.. Cause it seems it would be a royal pain to put snow chains on your tires. This is the first video with your truck that I've seen, so you may have answered that with a different video.

[@jbynum67]

Real nice interview.

[@bryantschell5981]

[@bsmllc.nicholasellison5632]

Nice video!!!

[@BISKUPIA]

very interesting blue this cat has goin on... changes color with different lighting ... i.m a big fan of the color blue... so at minute13:62 .. rig rolls into a shadow ans the color changes from what 1 shot calls 'process blue to' a deep sea turquoise in a split second.... very magical...

[@stevenjeen3448]

Amazing ride and a great interview. Just out of curiosity, what would be a round about cost of that much customization? Just the paint job must be staggering amount of money. Thanks for all you do.

[@pavel1809]
